Season 2015 F1 ~ BBC Freeview CH 601 10 tonight.

Title says it all.

Been a long wait. Not long until they're off now.

Missed that - any good??

Tbh it seems to me like theyve just packed up from last season - becoming like football, never-ending.

I enjoyed it. A late evening hour well spent for this Motor Sport enthusiast. In addition to making predictions, all sadly very predictable and boringly obvious ... , not one presenter wanted to be seen to be out of step with the rest's predictions so all went into statin' the bleedin' mode. Plenty of last season footage too well worth seeing again.

Meantime BEEB News have engaged overkill mode with reporting Clarkson as have Murdoch's organ... Loads of them outside Clarkson's London base...

Until we know the full story, unlikely, something and nothing blown all out of proportion in the PC-riddled overkill UK media.

F1 season 2015 kicking off very soon....C'mon you ....

Was this programme the one billed as 'duel of the Silver Arrows' which is on BBC1 @ 2315hrs tonight?

Radio Times show it as a repeat.

No, that was history. Last night's programme was about predictions for upcoming F1 2015.

Thanks MGJohn.

I have just realised my question was rather stupid as of course it is the new season you referred to.

Is the programme you mentioned repeated?

As well as the main BBC channels, keep an eye on the Freeview Channel 601 and iPlayer listings. Bound to show it again sometime between now and the KO.

I enjoyed the programme on iPlayer (common sense discussion between McNish etc).
